TASTING :

On the nose, a complex bouquet of aromas of red fruit, baked apple and hints of dried fruit. Airy, lively and nervous on the palate. With its balance of richness and freshness, this Champagne stands out. It has the depth and complexity to accompany a gourmet meal. A fine match for roast poultry or maturecheeses .

PAIRING :

By virtue of its power, this Champagne Empreinte complements the expressive flavours of gastronomic cooking remarkably well. Bresse chicken with morel mushrooms, quail with grapes or a fricassee of forest mushrooms harmonise perfectly with this Champagne Empreinte, served at 11-12° C.
